Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, said that the U.S. is in the middle of a Covid-19 epidemic and that he is very troubled by the state of American politics.
He told NBC that he didn't want to see anyone suffer and die from Covid. Everybody deserves to have the safety of good public health and that's not happening if you're a far-right Republican or a far- left Democrat.
Between 300 and 400 people are dying from Covid every day, and less than 15% of people are taking the new vaccine booster.
He thinks the idea of forgetting it is over.
The 81-year-old became a household name when she battled back against misinformation from the highest levels of government. He was a quasi-celebrity because of his steadfast commitment to science and his challenge of former President Donald Trump.
It has been two years since the last vaccine for the Covid-19, but it is still important to get it in time for the holidays.
People can move on if they keep their immunity up to date.
Fauci said in August that he would step down as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and as an advisor to the White House at the end of the year. He encouraged people to get the vaccine.
Fauci hopes to be remembered for bringing science and medicine and public health principles to crises. I have done everything I have to do that.
Fauci has advised seven U.S. presidents, starting with Ronald Reagan through the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
